Resources: Institutional Review Board

Because EUI involves sustained ethnographic inquiry and research on human subjects, all data collection must be carried out in compliance with carefully defined research protocols approved by the Institutional Review Board. Here instructors and students will find important research guidelines and resources concerning institutional review, as well as links to the EUI consent forms, intellectual property forms, and research summary forms necessary for all EUI research participants. Following each semester, EUI students submit research summaries to the IRB, documenting the number of subjects interviewed (including their demographic profiles), where interviews took place, and how subjects were recruited to participate.
